Hi, @@AgnesMann, I live in Ireland and I am finishing the Masters in Accounting and Finance. That degree provides 9 exemptions for ACCA, after which I intend to start as soon as I submit the dissertation in September. I am not so young (38 years old) and I was struggling with the "deadline" to be a mother and the accomplishment of my goal of being full ACCA qualified. So, you proved that it is possible to study while working and being a mother. So I don't know what is gonna happen this year, but I am more comfortable with the idea. I don't have family or friends here to help. However, same as you, I have a wonderful husband. So I think I can do it. And if a baby comes in the middle of the process, it is not the end of the world. Thank you for sharing your amazing story! You are a strong woman!
@@natashacerqueira3935 omg that’s fantastic to hear, you are doing amazing being a mummy and educating yourself. And Master! Wow. I did the degree on same subject and also had 9 exemptions but to be honest if I could do it all over again I would just do Acca from scratch. Now the student loan co takes £200 every month off my pay check. But I am happy it worked out that way anyways. So happy to hear your story too. We are all strong! Woman are powerful and fierce and once we set our heart one something- it’s done! Keep in touch hun and thank you for a lovely comment. Xxx
OMG thank you, I was really wearing a lot of makeup to cover the puffiness from the cold I was through :-) Thank you and I only hope to inspire some mums and parents to reach for their educational dreams. Thank you for stopping by! xx
I would appreciate if you read my question. Are we able to handle the accounting job we are wanted after finishing the acca course? I'm kinda afraid of that. Thx
Hi. Acca gears you up for the employment and you have to do 36 months work experience which allows you to get prepared for complex issues when fully qualified. Don’t get worried ahead of time. You’ll be fine
Keep...it...up 👏👏👏👏👏 Take one glass normal hot water {150ml }, add little - wit salt 'nd drink slowly - slowly . Your voice became to perfect . Thanks 4 information.
Great suggestion! I would need to do an extensive research as it is not something I have ever been involved in. I will try to put something together and plan it out for next month. Thank you so much
@@AgnesMann yeah it’s upto you like it does not have to be a separate one, just add a small part with your planned videos or something. Take time there’s no hurry ofc. I really appreciate your approach towards your community. It’s honestly too good
Hello Agnes, I just registered to be an ACCA student and I am currently waiting for my exemptions as I write, since I also did accounting at the university. I know it is been 3 years since you've posted the video but your title kind of attracted my attention, that you're based in the UK as a foreigner. So I wanted to know more about your journey. Did you already do uni a UK or did you apply an find a job abroad when/after studying ACCA? Thanks and hats off for your commendable journey🎉
I worked in accountancy for many years without any accountancy qualification at all, I am happy I did not pay to get qualified as I am now no longer interested in pursuing this as a career as it is not really what i'm looking for anymore.
@@AgnesMann I am currently just taking a break from work for now which might well become permanent. Alot has changed in my life over the past 4 years some for the better and some not so much. But all of it has made me alot more focused on the personal goals I want to achieve and I now feel work was holding me back.
@@gatekeeperboxing5898 wow that’s amazing that you have been able to do that. I hope whatever you are trying to accomplish will work out for you. Never quit your dreams! Good luck and keep me posted
@@AgnesMann Well for me I never really had a clear idea of what I wanted to go into regarding employment. Mathematics was always my favourite lesson in school way above anything else (French 2nd, English 3rd, Science 4th & History 5th) so it seemed logical to go into something that seemed to involve a high degree of numeracy. Unfortunately it also comes with alot of other routine mundane office tasks that overtime began to become a tedious aspect to the job. The primary reason for my current disdain for employment though would have to be the number of truly awful bosses I have had to work with over the years who constantly undermined me as a person and at times attempted to undermine my work, while using it themselves and taking the credit. Thats why now I want to do things on my own terms without interference from individuals who clearly don't have my best interest at heart.
@gatekeeperboxing5898 wow you have some story to tell indeed. Shame people can’t treat each other nicely despite of their position or level of authority. I wish you all the best
I’ve nearly completed AAT level 2. I planned to do level 3 & 4 then ACCA, but I didn’t realise you could do ACCA without doing AAT first. Would you recommend doing AAT level 3&4 before ACCA or just going straight to ACCA?
Yes you can, unless you don't have GCSE done at first (best to check with ACCA first if you could jump straight in and begin ACCA with what you have, and how many exemptions would you be eligible to get). You would need to check if perhaps one more exam of AAT would not possibly give you another exception as AAT are not as challenging as ACCA, so try squeeze as much as you can from AAT whilst you are already doing AAT. But to answer you question- you can do ACCA from the very basics as long as you are eligable .

Hi Agnes, I NEED YOUR HELP!! I just have done my GCSE's and looking for a volunteer accounting job in this summer holidays. Can you PLS tell me how and where to apply I have applied in SOME birmingham accounting firms(via phone and email) can u pls guide me rn. Thanks.
Hello, i got a program graduate role at big 4 for my ACA studying. - do u recommend me staying there long term or leave and start my own practice? Which is greater chance of financial success
you need to work in a practice for 2 years before you can open your own if you want to go the ACCA route of having the practice. stay in big 4 until you finish studying and then move on I'd say.
@@AgnesMann so stay in Big 4 - get the ACA qualification then i can open my own accounting firm? If you dont mind me asking why did u do this? Is it very tough to become profitable in this field?
@@future1127 I didn’t do this as I was never lucky enough to get a job at big 4. I never worked in the practice either. I only was working in the industry and that’s not the best route for the great experience especially if you want to have your own practice
@@future1127 yes totally - you are working for yourself and can always scale up and grow whereas when you work for someone else you can only eat so much.
Can one move to the UK after becoming an Acca affiliate to do their PER there and alongside pursue a masters degree? Do firms their consider appointing Acca affiliates who have just completed their all papers and are willing to do their PER of 3yrs there?
Being affiliate you can find jobs in the UK but they will be junior positions or assistants. Not sure if you can find a company that will offer a visa for affiliate though. And not sure about the last question you’d need to ask around the recruiting agencies
I’m a tad baffled about what to do in terms of next steps. I was studying with BPP in London, I’m currently working towards my MSc and have 3 professional exams left to sit. After I finish I want to do my PER (as is required for membership) however I have really low UCAS points which is acting as a barrier for me in terms of my search now (to begin around sept 22). Do you have any advice ? Where to look
Hey agnes how's the condition rn in UK i am studying in india foing acca completed 4 papers Is it worth moving to uk in coming years or some other country??
I have completed from FA1 to F9 at first attempt and also having three years experience from one of top ten public accounting firm. is it possible to get job from Uk ? I live in Kenya.
I do believe it is possible, and I know of lot of foreigners working n the UK. I am one for example. Are you going to be completing the professional papers too?
@@mukhtarsaiid5419 that’s fantastic as this really will give you advantage alongside the experience you had from the top practice. Can you not try to get a transfer? Or are you no longer working there
Great job Agnes. Could you please clarify : What about, someone who is a CA in his country. Has AAT in Nigeria, BSc Accounting, ACCA-Certifr and looking to study MSc Accounting and Finance in UK with about 7 years of experience in accounting as Head of Finance, Finance Manager, Finance Controller in Nigeria(excluding other junior level jobs) What's the prospective pay like and journey? Any idea, please?
Thank you Best thing to do is to send your CV to the recruiter and let them tell you what you can expect in terms of the pay and the opportunity for work. Your in Nigeria now? so would need a sponsorship visa too in that case. I hope this helps
Hi Anges, found this video very helpful. I'm a UK national, and completing my acca right after a-levels, will this pose as an issue for me as I decided not to do acca after a 3/4 year uni degree first? an issue in getting jobs I mean.
No issue as such. You need to work alongside studying acca as you will need 3 years work experience in order to qualify for membership. I hope this helps but let me know if you have more questions
Yes, ACCA does give you signing authority. You can open your practice straight away so long you have two years experience working in one, or you can partner up with another ACCA 50/50 so long they have 2 yrs practice experience. Are you ACCA or thinking of doing it?
@@souvikguha146 yes CIMA is at the same level as ACCA although in my opinion it’s easier to get through in terms their requirements of achieving the qualifications
It really depends on the type of experience and role you’re applying for. Please look on reed , type the job and area you’re looking for and see yourself
Hi ... I'm doing ACCA ...once I done with my ACCA do I get any chance to work in 🇬🇧UK...? With No practical experience ..I done My MBA aswell ?? Can u help me out ?
@@AgnesMann how about gaining that work experience of 36 months in UK ? Will it be difficult to find training firm for a foreigner who studied ACCA outside UK and come to UK for internship and further career
Hi I have done ACCA foundations level till F9 in Pakistan and I am thinking about doing the rest of my acca and practical experience in uk. Can I do that?
Hello,I am glad to see you.I am first who watching your videos.Can I give the question about ACCA and CIMA?What do you suggest about ACCA?And what is main differences between them?So may be CIMA better than ACCA?
Hello i am from pakistan doing a levels with commerce backgroud. my plan is to study acca in uk after a levels and find a best job there right after my acca affiliation. is this a good part for a successful career? Please do help. Thankyou!
Hi thanks for the question. I would say do study and work at the same time. you will need 36 months of accounting experience to be able to fully qualify so the sooner you start work the better.
Hey Agnes, I am from India. I actually wanna go for ACCA here itself, soo i wanted to know abt the actual scope and pay-scale in India, are there any opportunities in Indian MNCs. I'll be glad if u reply. Thank you ❤️☺️
I live in the Uk so it’s difficult for me to answer your questions as I don’t know the marker in India. I’ll be going to India next year so I’ll speak to recruiters there and do my research for you and then put the video up
I am an ACCA member from India, if I want to move to UK for some years. Which way would you recommend, to find the job there or to come for masters/ diploma program and then find the job?
To get to UK you need a visa so best to find a company that hires people from india and get a job UK based. But I’m not the best person to ask to be honest. good luck
You might have a few if you have had any accounting topics on you course. I would recommending you checking with ACCA website or calling them. Good luck and thank you for commenting
I am currently pursuing ACCA in India and I am into the finals now. I wanted to know whether it was possible to relocate to the UK after gaining 3 to 4 years experience from here in India?
I am an indian cma i have worked has a trainee for 2 years in india i have an exemption for writing cima Exam except one paper strategic case study exam If i complete this cima course how much salary can i expect in uk per annum
Can you please tell about CIMA-UK as well? Please? I only have to give 1 exam that is strategic case study paper but it's quite expensive for me. 4 Lakhs INR. I will do ACCA as well after 2 years but rn I am focusing on CIMA UK. (Now CGMA). Ps: I am Indian CMA member. I wanna move to Europe. Just let me know if it's worth doing because 4L is quite a big amount for me being a middle class Indian.
CIMA is very similar in terms of future career prospects. once you do CIMA there is no need to do acca as well. One is enough to get a good career. If accounting is your thing than it’s definitely a qualification worth doing and investing money into
Thankyou soo much ...for this video mam,it helped a lot..and I am now pursuing for ACCA and I think this video motivated me a lot Thanks a lot for your guidance 🙏🏻
I am a partly qualified Cost Accountant (CMA) from India and also have postgraduation in Finace and Taxation (MCOM).is any chances for getting a job based on this course? Mam, what is the cost of doing acca for Indian student?
Hi, I am from India and currently at ACCA professional level. Just wanted to know if ACCA member has one year of experience in management accounting in a uk based kpo located India. Will that person hold a chance to get a job in uk? What is the scope of management accountant as an ACCA ?
Hi ma'am. I'm a new subscriber. My biggest dream right now is to live in the UK so I'm planning to take the study route to try and get permanent stay later. I am finishing my bachelor's accounting degree next year and I'm planning to do my masters in accounting in the UK. Do you think persons will hire me after, that too paying me the minimum requirements to get indefinite leave to remain? I will have no work experience. Do you also suggest that I start my ACCA from my home country or try and start it after my masters degree. Please advice me, I need it. Thankyou
Thank you for joining my YT fam! I think the UK market values ACCA over masters so I would probably go via ACCA rather than Uni. It is a hard question though and I don't want to decide for you. Look up on Reed or other employment websites to see what it's required and this would be a good indication what route to take. thank you
Thank u for this video ❤️.. But i have heard that it is nearly impossible to get a work visa from India to UK/ European countries. So isn't it tough to land up in a good job in UK after completing ACCA from India..??
Hi Pat! You should call acca and establish how many exemptions you’re eligible for as this will give you a good start. Then sign up as a student and use Acowtancy to prepare for the exams. But start with calling acca first. Good luck and keep me posted
Undergrad in computer engineering, have 5 years of experience in software industry.. Then had a career break of 6 years..now I want to change career path to accounting.. I am in UK now.. Now if I start Acca, can I get job in UK? Is Acca enough Or masters in accounting & fin is needed ?
I have not seen such questions required on the job specs but I think you will be able to get a job maybe just need to requalify to cima. I hope this helps
Hello i started acca without any background in accounting and i am 17. And just finished my first 3 papers I scored f1-77,f3-86,f2-76 And i scored it with tutor Can i self study f5 for june session exams?
You can do anything you like if you put effort and study consistently. I studied all last P papers on my own using Acowtancy only. Well done for the scores keep it up and you have a great carrier in front of you
You should defo work and study at the same time as you cannot qualify without 36 months of practical experience. Big four is great to get experience in but there are hundreds of firms you can get experience in especially being so young. Good luck
Hi, I'm industry qualified ACCA. What options do I have to start my own business as I cannot get practice certificate untill I get 3 years of experience in practice?
I know a guy who did acca and then he re qualified to IFR I think so he could go open his practice. Acca makes it really hard to do it unless you have practice experience and then you pay as well for the practice licence.
Great video i wanna know ask something i have heard from some people that students doing acca have no social life. Is it a myth or reality. Would really appreciate if you shed some light into ot. Thanks
It does depend on how much you study and if you have a job on top of it. During the time you are preparing for the exams, the more you study the more chance you pass the exam. So it is a sacrifice you have to make short term for a long term success. So if you have a job, be prepared to reduce your social life to a minimum and then once you’re done with it catch up with friends. I hope this helps.
@@AgnesMann well i am not gonna do a job gonna study full time. Other than classes how many hours of study should we do. I have heard that if you are consistent you can easily do it.
@@sulimankhan4362 bro depends on you even if you study fro 8 hours(that's a lot ) you still got 10 hours left , considering yousleep for 6 ...so in that 10 hrs it's upto you ,you wanna watch shows and stay at home or go out party with friends (which is considered social life according to some teenagers) both are ways of spending your free time, so it depends on you ..choose
It really depends what were your duties. If you have any accounting relating duties you can count it in. You can call Acca and ask them if what you do will count
Hi Ma'am, I 'am a class 12 Student in India and wanted to pursue my career as ACCA in UK, since I 'am required to go for the 3years article ship for practical knowledge will I get an opportunity to get job in UK as a ACCA student with a qualification of 12th Standard ? if then what would be salary that they provide me.
Its difficult to say really. It will depend on many factors like location and CV overall. But you will definitely get jobs in the Uk so no worries about that. Acca is great carrier path to choose
@@AgnesMann Ma'am, then what if I complete the diploma in ACCA and then look for jobs cause having a diploma degree is way better than looking for jobs as a class 12 student,, IF I have completed the diploma and look for the internship of 3yrs will there be TRAINEE JOBS available for me in London or UK. since I need to run my daily expenses, tuition fee expenses etc. getting a trainee job would be really helpful for me for the first 3yrs.
Mam I'm having doubts.can I take ACCA after 12 th?? I'm from india (Kerala) am a commerce student and studying in 11th.im interested to take this course..not in here, wants to take in UK. Can I get job after completing this course? How much year for completing? How is your experience? Is it is better to take? Hope you message..mam
Hi. To answer your first question- yes I’m sure there are plenty however you would need to chalk your visa status etc. As to work and study- that’s how most people do it- they study and work at the same time and this is the best thing you can do to qualify quicker. I hope this helps. Thanks for watching and good luck
Hey there!! I am an Indian chartered Accountant(CA) I had completed 3 years of articleship in a 2nd tier City in india ( compulsory training during CA) now I am working with pwc in audit department for little less than 1 year.... As you might be aware that Indian CAs needs to give only 4 exams to complete Acca... Allso Indian CAs need not to do 3 year training for acca....so suppose if I complete those 4 papers and complete Acca along with my job ( which will be around 2 year experience by the time I complete Acca).....Then What will be job opportunities for me in UK ......growth prospects and starting pay packages..... Thankyou in advance 😊
Hi, Thank you for the comment The job opportunity after ACCA completion are the same for everyone so what i have mentioned in the video would be relevant despite having the ACCA done in India. I hope this helps
I would say finish up the degree first so you can claim some exemptions. It doesn’t have to take you 3 years to finish. It depends on how quick you pass through it
i am 19 years old and i am interested to do ACCA, when can i do, to start now or after completing my graduation, and there is any future scopes on acca.
To what extent would you say your degree matters during your whole accounting journey. I'm aware you got a first, let's say I have a 22 but am as equally skilled as you, would I still be able to reach your position with ease? Great video as always btw
It does not matter at all to be honest, and if I did not go that route and just did ACCA without doing the degree first, I would be £200 better off every month now (that is how much student loan company charges me for taking the loan while I was studying). I am positive that whatever class of degree you have, you still are able to climb the career ladder and do well- noone ever asked me what class did I get to be honest. Thank you for a lovely comment.
Still lots of job prospects only not the top positions. It will depend on the past experience. The market is full of jobs at the moment so good time to look for one and grow by experiance

Being affiliate you can find jobs in the UK but they will be junior positions or assistants. Not sure if you can find a company that will offer a visa for affiliate though. And not sure about the last question you’d need to ask around the recruiting agencies
@@AgnesMann Ok but overall I just wanted to know about the Acca scope, What’s the scope and demand for Acca’s like?
I’m a tad baffled about what to do in terms of next steps. I was studying with BPP in London, I’m currently working towards my MSc and have 3 professional exams left to sit. After I finish I want to do my PER (as is required for membership) however I have really low UCAS points which is acting as a barrier for me in terms of my search now (to begin around sept 22). Do you have any advice ? Where to look
You mean where to look for a work? Not sure what is your question exactly
@@AgnesMann yeah where to look for work sorry
@@KingsOfNeon1 reed, indeed, Google. Just type what you’re looking for and it should give you plenty of results
Thanks for motivation, may I ask about the 36 months experiences, does internship also count?
Yes, absolutely, so long it was accounts related. Thank you
Hey agnes how's the condition rn in UK i am studying in india foing acca completed 4 papers
Is it worth moving to uk in coming years or some other country??
100% you should move to the UK. lifestyle and pay are amazing.
I am doing ACCA in pakistan after completing acca than i will move to uk for best job
Sounds like a solid plan. Good luck
I have completed from FA1 to F9 at first attempt and also having three years experience from one of top ten public accounting firm. is it possible to get job from Uk ?
I live in Kenya.
I do believe it is possible, and I know of lot of foreigners working n the UK. I am one for example. Are you going to be completing the professional papers too?
Yes, I am going to complete them.
And thank you for your time.
@@mukhtarsaiid5419 that’s fantastic as this really will give you advantage alongside the experience you had from the top practice. Can you not try to get a transfer? Or are you no longer working there
@@AgnesMannI left the job In December last year.
Great job Agnes.
Could you please clarify :
What about, someone who is a CA in his country. Has AAT in Nigeria, BSc Accounting, ACCA-Certifr and looking to study MSc Accounting and Finance in UK with about 7 years of experience in accounting as Head of Finance, Finance Manager, Finance Controller in Nigeria(excluding other junior level jobs)
What's the prospective pay like and journey?
Any idea, please?
Thank you
Best thing to do is to send your CV to the recruiter and let them tell you what you can expect in terms of the pay and the opportunity for work. Your in Nigeria now? so would need a sponsorship visa too in that case. I hope this helps
Hi Anges, found this video very helpful. I'm a UK national, and completing my acca right after a-levels, will this pose as an issue for me as I decided not to do acca after a 3/4 year uni degree first? an issue in getting jobs I mean.
No issue as such. You need to work alongside studying acca as you will need 3 years work experience in order to qualify for membership. I hope this helps but let me know if you have more questions
Hello expecting that you would reply what could be the salary bracket for an ACCA Affiliate and not a member?
It will be just a little lesser than the member as you are pretty much there so the employee would recognise it as near enough the membership
@@AgnesMann thank you
Best video
Thank you. I made it about 3 years ago so the salary have increased by now for sure
@@AgnesMann current how many
Pound a fresh AccA candidate earn agnes
Does ACCA have signing authority in UK? And if not how can ACCA open it's practice.
Yes, ACCA does give you signing authority. You can open your practice straight away so long you have two years experience working in one, or you can partner up with another ACCA 50/50 so long they have 2 yrs practice experience. Are you ACCA or thinking of doing it?

Ur opinion on Acca n Aca icaew which is better?
ACCA is a little higher level but I think both are equally respected.
Which one are you (thinking of) doing?
@@AgnesMann and what about Cima,
@@souvikguha146 yes CIMA is at the same level as ACCA although in my opinion it’s easier to get through in terms their requirements of achieving the qualifications
How much an acca who have cleared 13 papers but not yet completed 3 years of experience earns??
It really depends on the type of experience and role you’re applying for. Please look on reed , type the job and area you’re looking for and see yourself
@@AgnesMann but I just wanted to know the average or minimum salary
@artsbyayush7727 again it depends so I can say any figure and it might be as close to the one you’ll get or as far- 35k it’s my wild guess
Hi ...
I'm doing ACCA ...once I done with my ACCA do I get any chance to work in 🇬🇧UK...? With No practical experience ..I done My MBA aswell ??
Can u help me out ?
You cannot qualify without gaining 36 months of relevant work experience. Once you have qualified you are bound to find work anywhere in the world
@@AgnesMann Thank you for the reply 😊😊
@@AgnesMann how about gaining that work experience of 36 months in UK ? Will it be difficult to find training firm for a foreigner who studied ACCA outside UK and come to UK for internship and further career
@@arsalankhan8616 I don’t think it matters that much as acca is global.
Hi I have done ACCA foundations level till F9 in Pakistan and I am thinking about doing the rest of my acca and practical experience in uk. Can I do that?
Sure. Acca is global so you can do it anywhere

Hello,I am glad to see you.I am first who watching your videos.Can I give the question about ACCA and CIMA?What do you suggest about ACCA?And what is main differences between them?So may be CIMA better than ACCA?
Hi thanks for warning. Them both have similar recognition in the UK but cima is easier to do I’ve heard.
Thanks

@@kunjiguchu9164 you can study online at home or anywhere where the classes are held. Depends on the type of study you would like to do

Yes sure it is. Good luck
Hey, thanks for the video. I'm doing Acca but is it better to study fully or study will working?
Thank you
Hi thanks for the question. I would say do study and work at the same time. you will need 36 months of accounting experience to be able to fully qualify so the sooner you start work the better.
Is it easy to find internship after becoming ACCA affiliate.
Not sure but ACCA path is always going to open many doors even at the study stage. Good luck
Hey Agnes, I am from India.
I actually wanna go for ACCA here itself, soo i wanted to know abt the actual scope and pay-scale in India, are there any opportunities in Indian MNCs.
I'll be glad if u reply.
Thank you ❤️☺️
I live in the Uk so it’s difficult for me to answer your questions as I don’t know the marker in India. I’ll be going to India next year so I’ll speak to recruiters there and do my research for you and then put the video up
@@AgnesMannokay i won't mince my words. I just wanna know tat if I do ACCA, will get recruited in here,in India. ????
What if you failed in mathematics in olevel and didn’t do mathematics in alevel? Can I still do the course ?
Not sure what certification you hold so best to check it with acca. I do believe you need maths for it so can’t say for sure
I am an ACCA member from India, if I want to move to UK for some years. Which way would you recommend, to find the job there or to come for masters/ diploma program and then find the job?
To get to UK you need a visa so best to find a company that hires people from india and get a job UK based. But I’m not the best person to ask to be honest. good luck
Hello from Albania. I have a bachelor degree and a master degree in business administeation. Do you think i can have any exemption? Thank you

apply on their website directly, I wish you a good luck
If someone has completed ACCA and is planning to do ICAEW, will this addition help that person???
Hi. I don’t think it would actually unless your career move requires it. Acca is the highest qualification in accounts as far as I’m concerned
@@AgnesMannOh Okay thanks
Can you please tell about CIMA-UK as well? Please? I only have to give 1 exam that is strategic case study paper but it's quite expensive for me. 4 Lakhs INR. I will do ACCA as well after 2 years but rn I am focusing on CIMA UK. (Now CGMA). Ps: I am Indian CMA member. I wanna move to Europe. Just let me know if it's worth doing because 4L is quite a big amount for me being a middle class Indian.
CIMA is very similar in terms of future career prospects. once you do CIMA there is no need to do acca as well. One is enough to get a good career. If accounting is your thing than it’s definitely a qualification worth doing and investing money into
@@AgnesMann Thank you so much ma'am.
Thankyou soo much ...for this video mam,it helped a lot..and I am now pursuing for ACCA and I think this video motivated me a lot

Exactly the same as for those doing it in the UK. It all depends what course you sign up to but the fees and exam cost is the same across the globe
@@AgnesMann is there any exemption for post graduation students and ICWA students?
@@vidhukrishna5338 I am pretty sure there will be some but please check with ACCA as I can't tell you just how many

is there any scope for acca affilate in UK in audit or invest or tax. Which is given more importance there?
all 3 have a big scope and are the areas of the expertise which is valued so I'd go with what you enjoy the most

Hi ma'am. I'm a new subscriber. My biggest dream right now is to live in the UK so I'm planning to take the study route to try and get permanent stay later. I am finishing my bachelor's accounting degree next year and I'm planning to do my masters in accounting in the UK. Do you think persons will hire me after, that too paying me the minimum requirements to get indefinite leave to remain? I will have no work experience. Do you also suggest that I start my ACCA from my home country or try and start it after my masters degree. Please advice me, I need it. Thankyou
Thank you for joining my YT fam! I think the UK market values ACCA over masters so I would probably go via ACCA rather than Uni. It is a hard question though and I don't want to decide for you. Look up on Reed or other employment websites to see what it's required and this would be a good indication what route to take. thank you
@@AgnesMann ok thankyou
Thank u for this video ❤️.. But i have heard that it is nearly impossible to get a work visa from India to UK/ European countries. So isn't it tough to land up in a good job in UK after completing ACCA from India..??
I don't have much expertise in this field but for sure people get contract with working visas
@@AgnesMann Thank u for u r feedback ❤️
Im working on it 🤗
Hi Agnes
Am new in the uk with a degree in accounting but my dream is to be a ACCA how can go about?
Hi Pat!
You should call acca and establish how many exemptions you’re eligible for as this will give you a good start. Then sign up as a student and use Acowtancy to prepare for the exams. But start with calling acca first. Good luck and keep me posted
@@AgnesMann ok I will thank you very much.
Most welcome and thank you 🙏🏻
Watching u from pakistan.will u guide me regarding ACCA scope in UK for foreigner accountant.
Do you mean in terms of employment or do you want to do ACCA?
@@AgnesMann i am also ACCA student.i just wants to confirm ACCA scope in term of employment if a foreigner accountant goes UK for a job.
@@mousabhatti4682 if you have ACCA done in Pakistan you still have plenty of chance to find a job in the UK as ACcA is global and accepted anywhere
Undergrad in computer engineering, have 5 years of experience in software industry.. Then had a career break of 6 years..now I want to change career path to accounting.. I am in UK now.. Now if I start Acca, can I get job in UK? Is Acca enough Or masters in accounting & fin is needed ?
Acca is enough to get top accounts jobs in the UK. Start with jobs while doing acca study as it will help you qualify quicker. Good luck
@@AgnesMann thank you 👍
You are great 👍
Thank you! 😃
Is usa cma valid in your country how much they are earning
I have not seen such questions required on the job specs but I think you will be able to get a job maybe just need to requalify to cima. I hope this helps
Hello i started acca without any background in accounting and i am 17.
And just finished my first 3 papers
I scored f1-77,f3-86,f2-76
And i scored it with tutor
Can i self study f5 for june session exams?
And should i start working in big four as an trainee ? Or focus on my education?
You can do anything you like if you put effort and study consistently. I studied all last P papers on my own using Acowtancy only. Well done for the scores keep it up and you have a great carrier in front of you
You should defo work and study at the same time as you cannot qualify without 36 months of practical experience. Big four is great to get experience in but there are hundreds of firms you can get experience in especially being so young. Good luck
@@AgnesMann thank you so much for advice 👍
@@speedlive6106 anytime 😉
Hi, I'm industry qualified ACCA. What options do I have to start my own business as I cannot get practice certificate untill I get 3 years of experience in practice?
I know a guy who did acca and then he re qualified to IFR I think so he could go open his practice. Acca makes it really hard to do it unless you have practice experience and then you pay as well for the practice licence.
Are these monthly or annual amounts? And this is so good video, cong. :)
Its an annual salary that I am referring to. Thank you so much please share with friends to help me grow this channel
Thank you so much! 👏
Great video i wanna know ask something i have heard from some people that students doing acca have no social life. Is it a myth or reality. Would really appreciate if you shed some light into ot. Thanks
It does depend on how much you study and if you have a job on top of it. During the time you are preparing for the exams, the more you study the more chance you pass the exam. So it is a sacrifice you have to make short term for a long term success. So if you have a job, be prepared to reduce your social life to a minimum and then once you’re done with it catch up with friends. I hope this helps.
@@AgnesMann well i am not gonna do a job gonna study full time. Other than classes how many hours of study should we do. I have heard that if you are consistent you can easily do it.
@@sulimankhan4362 bro depends on you even if you study fro 8 hours(that's a lot ) you still got 10 hours left , considering yousleep for 6 ...so in that 10 hrs it's upto you ,you wanna watch shows and stay at home or go out party with friends (which is considered social life according to some teenagers) both are ways of spending your free time, so it depends on you ..choose
I am in banking for 10 years,...wil that count as experience?
It really depends what were your duties. If you have any accounting relating duties you can count it in. You can call Acca and ask them if what you do will count
Hi Ma'am, I 'am a class 12 Student in India and wanted to pursue my career as ACCA in UK, since I 'am required to go for the 3years article ship for practical knowledge will I get an opportunity to get job in UK as a ACCA student with a qualification of 12th Standard ? if then what would be salary that they provide me.
Its difficult to say really. It will depend on many factors like location and CV overall. But you will definitely get jobs in the Uk so no worries about that. Acca is great carrier path to choose
@@AgnesMann Ma'am, then what if I complete the diploma in ACCA and then look for jobs cause having a diploma degree is way better than looking for jobs as a class 12 student,, IF I have completed the diploma and look for the internship of 3yrs will there be TRAINEE JOBS available for me in London or UK. since I need to run my daily expenses, tuition fee expenses etc. getting a trainee job would be really helpful for me for the first 3yrs.
Mam I'm having doubts.can I take ACCA after 12 th?? I'm from india (Kerala) am a commerce student and studying in 11th.im interested to take this course..not in here, wants to take in UK. Can I get job after completing this course? How much year for completing? How is your experience? Is it is better to take? Hope you message..mam
Yes you should take acca it opens up so many doors.
any opportunity for international part qualified students?? if I do my professional level can i continue my study with work?
Hi. To answer your first question- yes I’m sure there are plenty however you would need to chalk your visa status etc. As to work and study- that’s how most people do it- they study and work at the same time and this is the best thing you can do to qualify quicker. I hope this helps. Thanks for watching and good luck
If I do acca from india. Then I can job in uk at higher level?🙄🙄🙄
Yes. ACCA is globally recognised and in the Uk is the highest accounting qualifications you can get
Hey there!!
I am an Indian chartered Accountant(CA) I had completed 3 years of articleship in a 2nd tier City in india ( compulsory training during CA) now I am working with pwc in audit department for little less than 1 year....
As you might be aware that Indian CAs needs to give only 4 exams to complete Acca... Allso Indian CAs need not to do 3 year training for acca....so suppose if I complete those 4 papers and complete Acca along with my job ( which will be around 2 year experience by the time I complete Acca).....Then What will be job opportunities for me in UK ......growth prospects and starting pay packages.....
Thankyou in advance 😊
Hi, Thank you for the comment
The job opportunity after ACCA completion are the same for everyone so what i have mentioned in the video would be relevant despite having the ACCA done in India. I hope this helps
@@AgnesMann okk.....thanks a lot 😊
I will be studying for a degree in Accounting and Finance in the uk, do I start the Acca 3 year process after my degree or I can do it during?
I would say finish up the degree first so you can claim some exemptions. It doesn’t have to take you 3 years to finish. It depends on how quick you pass through it

To what extent would you say your degree matters during your whole accounting journey. I'm aware you got a first, let's say I have a 22 but am as equally skilled as you, would I still be able to reach your position with ease?
Great video as always btw
It does not matter at all to be honest, and if I did not go that route and just did ACCA without doing the degree first, I would be £200 better off every month now (that is how much student loan company charges me for taking the loan while I was studying). I am positive that whatever class of degree you have, you still are able to climb the career ladder and do well- noone ever asked me what class did I get to be honest. Thank you for a lovely comment.
@@AgnesMann thats awesome to hear and very motivating. Im glad and happy for you that you're doing well in life too, always nice to see. Thanks
What job opportunities we can have in UK if Someone is ACCA part qualified
